  • Artificial intelligence is everywhere and it's already making a huge impact on our lives. It's autocompleting texts on our cellphones, telling us which videos to watch on UA-cam, beating us at video games, recognizing us in photos, ordering products in stores, driving cars, scheduling appointments, you get the idea. Today we're going to explain what AI can (and can't) do right now and explain how we got to where we are today.

      @@ticcitobyGaaraRules hey. Hope you're doing well. Just wanted to apologize if I gave you the impression that I am part of Crash Course. I've been a big fan for a couple of years, but I'm definitely not a teacher.
      Looking back at my original comment, it does seem fake and over-enthusiastic, especially since this is the first video in this series and this is my first time hearing from this presenter. I definitely should have thought about that last part before posting. What I should have said, and what I was really trying to say, is that this seems like an excellent start to this video series. I apologize that it came out so wrong. The crash course teachers have taught me a lot... I would never want anyone to read a comment of mine and think that it was a fake review kind of thing. Thanks and have a good one. :-)

      It mainly comes from sci-fi novels where robots gain self awareness and enslave humanity self reflective on superiority complexes with races. The closest thing I imagine AI will come to destroy all humans will be in a amazon factory somewhere losing control, very doubtful we as humans will knowingly invent self awareness chips.

      ​@@W0lfbaneShikaisc00l Concepts like self-awareness, consciousness, rebellion, evil, ... are kind of red herrings when it comes to how superintelligent AI could be dangerous. It's more about the *side effects* an *extremely powerful problem solver* would have, unless it also cares about everything single thing we care about.
      See Rob Miles's videos on AI safety / goal alignment for that perspective. I wouldn't consider it the most pressing concern about AI tech right now, but there's more to it than just projection.

    CrashCourse is such a great channel to subscribe to because they explain everything in a sophisticated/fun manner. It is a very well balanced channel, meaning they have a little bit of everything, and they give you a sufficient amount of information to lead you on to the right path. Personally, I love everything about it and hope that it will grow in later years.

  • @XSpImmaLion
    @XSpImmaLion 4 роки тому +11

    Good intro, this is gonna be a good series.
    There's something that bugs me about AI to this day though... which is something that always happens one way or another, but in context I guess it's worth discussing.
    You see, this thing we have working today shouldn't have been called Artificial Intelligence. It is being called like that because it's simpler, because marketing, because semantics loses to practicity, and a bunch of other stuff.
    But the vast majority of what we really have working today is machine learning with a few very specific applications for artificial neural networks.
    Intelligence is a very general, very broad concept in itself. But I'd argue that among traits that are often attributed to intelligence, the so called artificial intelligence hasn't gotten even half of the easier ones for an automated system to get just yet.
    Logic, learning to a point, planning to a point, problem solving for very specific problems. That's about it. It leaves out creativity, critical reasoning, understanding, reasoning, emotional knowledge, and perhaps most important of all - self-awareness.
    A huge part of the fears about AI stems from two distinct things about AI evolution. One is pretty clear and has to be addressed as soon as possible - the usage of AI by bad actors. So it's not about AI as an evil thing, it's about the power of the tool itself. Which is just the same fear of nuclear power. In the wrong hands, it could be employed to make peoples' lives miserable, if not outright end life altogether.
    It's easy enough to understand how. A dictatorship that wants to control it's population could use all sorts of algorithms, neural networks, machine learning and so called AI related techniques to get the upper hand and give power and control to a central power. It is already being employed in this way. So we have to take action to stop it, lest we wanna conform to a life under oppressive control.
    Likewise, AI could be employed to developed even more powerful weapons of mass destruction. Train an AI to run through millions of scenarios modifying a virus or tweaking a disease, there you go.
    But there is another very distinct fear - about what happens when artificial intelligence algorithms becomes so sophisticated running in machines so powerful that they achieve something like self-awareness. This is the distant scenario fear and worry, also known as singularity. This is further into the future, but something that people are starting to worry right now. Some argue that we'd need something like general intelligence for something like that to happen, which seems almost unreachable right now. Some think we don't need to go that far.
    In any case, a topic worth discussing. Glad to see CrashCourse covering it.
